jason manns - up on cripple creek lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1: jensen ackles]
when i get off of this mountain
you know where i wanna go?
straight down the mississippi river
to the gulf of mexico
to lake charles, louisiana
little bessie, girl that i once knew
she told me just to come on by
if there’s anything that she could do

[chorus]
up on cripple creek, she sends me
if i spring a leak, she mends me
i don’t have to speak, she defends me
a drunkard’s dream if i ever did see one

[verse 2: mark pellegrino]
good luck had just stung me
and to the race track i did go
she bet on one horse to win
and i bet on another to show
the odds were in my favor
i had him five to one
when that nag to win came around the track
sure enough, we had won

[chorus]
up on cripple creek, she sends me
if i spring a leak, she mends me
i don’t have to speak, she defends me
a drunkard’s dream if i ever did see one

[verse 3: rob benedict]
well i took up all of my winnings
and i gave my little bessie half
she tore it up and blew it in my face
just for a laugh
now there’s just one thing in the whole wide world
i would like to see
that’s when that little love of mine
she dips her doughnut in my tea

[chorus]
up on cripple creek, she sends me
if i spring a leak, she mends me
i don’t have to speak, she defends me
a drunkard’s dream if i ever did see one

[verse 4: richard speight, jr.]
now me and my mate we head back at the shack
we got spike jones on the box
she said, “i can’t take the way he sings
but i love to hear him talk”
now that just gave my heart a fall
to the bottom of my feet
and i swore as i took another pull
my bessie can’t be beat
oh lord she can’t

[chorus]
up on cripple creek, she sends me
if i spring a leak, she mends me
i don’t have to speak, she defends me
a drunkard’s dream if i ever did see one

[instrumental]

[verse 5: jason manns]
there’s a flood out in california
up north it’s freezing cold
this living on the road is getting pretty old
so i guess i’ll call on my big mama
tell her i’ll be rolling in
but you know deep down, i’m kind of tempted
to go and see my bessie again, yeah

[chorus]
up on cripple creek, she sends me
if i spring a leak, she mends me
i don’t have to speak, she defends me
a drunkard’s dream if i ever did see one

[outro]
